Miscellaneous Info

I am a consultant and researcher at the multinational consulting firm &samhoud. At &samhoud I am responsible for all aspects regarding organizational analysis in the areas of employee and customer relations, organizational development, and multisource feedback. I advise clients on the implementation and follow-up of organizational analysis. I have helped over 50 organizations spanning all sectors, SMEs as well as multinationals. I have extensive experience as project manager of large scale research projects. Additionally, I contribute to the knowledge development at &samhoud on a diversity of topics such as sustainable value creation, connection and performance, leadership, and personal vision.
